[Dixielandjazz] New MIDI

[John Farrell]

Craig -

I used to play the tunes into my PC with a MIDI keyboard but found that the
resulting file required so much editing that it was quicker for me to write
a clam-free score in Encore and create the MIDI file from that.

Glad to hear that you enjoyed Jim Jams, Bargy wrote some neat tunes (ever
heard his Pianoflage? Great music.).
